    Dedge,
    do you have a reason to suspect the BIOS is causing the instability and freezes? It very well could be a hardware conflict, your memory, or your PSU.

    hey preacher, not really, this is the first computer i have built. i'm pretty confident about the psu, i swapped it out for their recommended psu for this mbo. i am really at a loss, I am waiting for another stick of ram to arrive, as soon as that gets to me I will do a switch with whats in there. i agree memory could be it and that's why i'm frustrated that my computer refuses to boot from a cd drive. i formulated a memtest disk to test out the memory modules and this disk fired up just fine on 2 other computers. for some reason mine just refuses to even look at another drive. funny though both my optic drives work fine once i have booted from the hard drive. i appreciate your thoughts and am struggling for answers. thanx buddy...dedge
